Liposuction of Abdomen and Thighs

Liposuction or Liposculpture surgery is performed to remove unwanted localized fat deposits. A suction tube is inserted through a tiny incision, usually in an inconspicuous area. When possible, the incision is made in one of the body’s skin creases. Tumescent liposuction consists of injection of fluid into a specific area as preparation for liposuction surgery. This procedure sometimes helps to reduce the bleeding and facilitate the liposuction surgery.

Areas where the Liposuction procedure can be beneficial are the abdomen, waist, back, thighs and knees. Sometimes, there can also be significant improvement of the neck and arms.

The best candidates for Liposuction Surgery are patients with localized fat accumulation who have been unable to reduce these areas through diet and exercise.

Liposuction is not a cure for obesity, but rather an effective procedure for eliminating "that bulge".

As with all cosmetic surgery, results will be rewarding if expectations are realistic. As with any surgery, there are some risks which your doctor will discuss with you.
